Jeffrey Alan Flaig

Jeffrey Alan Flaig, age 71, of Shawano, passed away on Monday, September 21, 2026, peacefully after putting up a good fight to stay with his family. Jeff was born on December 15, 1954, in Shawano to the late Edward and Delores (Utke) Flaig. In his younger years, he made memories building cars and motors with his brother, Jay. On June 14, 1986, he was united in marriage to Brenda Baeten in Appleton. In his free time, Jeff enjoyed listening to classic rock, collecting matchbox cars, building model cars and watching NASCAR, the Green Bay Packers and the Brewers. Jeff was a good listener and was always there for his sons and wife. His insatiable love for popcorn and licorice was only ever overshadowed by his beloved wife’s cooking. Jeff enjoyed being outside taking care of his yard, going for walks, and grilling out when the weather was nice. In his younger years he liked to hunt, both bow and gun. Jeff was a good man and a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend; he will be deeply missed.
Jeff is survived by his wifey-poo of 40 years, Brenda; sons, Jason (partner, Kristin Kovarik) Flaig and Jamie Flaig; granddaughter, Winter Dahlia Flaig; siblings, James (Lois) Flaig, Jay (Nancy) Flaig, Jon (Loanne) Flaig, Jerry Flaig and Judy (David) Reed; and special friend, Debbie Parson. He is further survived by numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
Jeff is preceded in death by his sister, Joan Reed; parents, Edward and Delores Flaig; mother-in-law and father-in-law, Robert and Ella Mae Baeten.
To keep with Jeff’s wishes private services will be held.
